On Monday morning, Mr. Descartes asked his Algebra II students whether they had gone to the carnival in town over the weekend. "I did," said Kristen. "I went on the Teacups ride twice, the rollercoaster twice, and the Spinning Vortex once. I had a lot of fun for only $20."
"I went on those rides, too!" exclaimed Jorge. "Just once each on the Teacups and rollercoaster, but three times on the Spinning Vortex, all for $25."
"I did five Teacup rides," said Lakesha. "And two rollercoaster rides, and one Spinning Vortex. I spent $29."
Marc listed off the same rides. "Three Teacups for me, plus two rollercoasters, plus two rides on the Spinning Vortex, all for – "
"You don't need to say," interrupted Mr. Descartes. "I know how much you spent."
How much are the rides? How much did Marc spend

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 120 lb and 161 lb. the new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 125 lb and a standard deviation of 28.1 lb. a)if a pilot is randomly selected, find the probability that his weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb.the probability is approximately? b. if 36 different pilots are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean weight is between 120 lb and 161 lb. the probability is approximately? c. when redesigning the ejection seat, which probability is more relevant? . part (b) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important. b. part (b) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. c. part (a) because the seat performance for a sample of pilots is more important. d. part (a) because the seat performance for a single pilot is more important.
